The Promise of Easter

This Lenten-Easter book was prepared with the intent that the words that follow, not be a chore, but rather, are intended to bring joy and personal fulfillment. I pray that you approach what you read here with an open mind and heart. Read at your own pace, as much or as little as you are comfortable to digest at one sitting. If something in it strikes a cord and makes you stop to think...well, then by all means, stop and think!

The purpose of this booklet is: to give faith, hope and inspiration, to encourage prayer, and to bring peace and tranquility into our lives. May it be a Lenten reminder of God's manifold blessings, His guidance and His love.

If you want to know how much you matter to God, look at Christ with His arms outstretched on the cross, saying, "I love you this much! I'd rather die than to live without you."
